Recipes for Love and Murder: Trailer, synopsis, and ensemble cast
Recipes for Love and Murder is all set to premiere on Monday, September 5 on Acorn TV. Two episodes will be released weekly as the series is a 10-episode show. It is written by Annie Griffin, Karen Jeynes and Sally Andrew.
The summary for the series reads:
"Tannie Maria sees food as medicine for the body and heart. She envies romance as much as she enjoys cooking and eating. But it's death that shakes up Tannie Maria's life, when one of the correspondents to her column is brutally murdered."
The official trailer for Recipes for Love and Murder released last month and featured Tannie Maria returning to South Africa ten years after her husband died. She now offers advice and pens down recipes in the local gazette in the South African region of The Karoo.
However, her life took an eventful turn when a woman named Martine wrote to Maria about her abusive husband who was found dead. She then decided to join forces with journalist Jessie September to help solve the murder and catch the killer before they claimed more victims.
